Charlie & Scott – Honeymooners

Hi Michael – Thanks for asking for additional feedback on our trip. In short, we had a great time. New Zealand was even more spectacular than we imagined and the itinerary you put together really gave us an opportunity to see so much and encourage us to come back for a longer stay. All told though we thought the trip was incredibly well organized and easy to execute. We never had an issue with anything on the itinerary and loved getting your suggestions for where to stop along our drives. The app made it super easy to stay on track and took much of the guesswork out of the trip. We can’t thank you enough for helping to make this such a memorable trip. We’re looking forward to a return visit soon.

Edina & Party – Family

We are a family of 4 and just came back from our NZ - Australia holiday organized by Guest New Zealand, which was a fantastic experience. All services, transfers, itinerary and accomodation was spot on. We were given a great price and saw twice as much for a much more competitive price than trips offered by agencies based in the UK. Michael helped us with the itinerary from the begenning accomodating all our requests. During the tours we requested minor changes to fit in with the timings and the adjustments were made imediately, so we felt being properly looked after also during the trip. I can only recommend this agency and would use them again in the future. Thank you Michael!

Bryan & Abby Hess – Lifestyle Travellers

My wife and I highly recommend Michael Nees. We previously used Michael’s services for a trip to New Zealand in 2012, and recently he helped us plan a trip to Australia and New Zealand. We shared cities/regions we wanted to see along with a few activities, and Michael skillfully recommended quality lodging, fun activities, and travel logistics. Travelling to that part of the world from the United States can seem a bit overwhelming planning wise. Michael helps take the stress out of the process however and on both trips we have been very happy with our lodging accommodations and his other suggestions. He also sets up vehicle rentals and can plan domestic flights.

Working with Michael brings you the knowledge of a local. We knew we wanted to visit Far North Queensland for example, but he suggested a small town for us to stay in that ended up far nicer than the town we would have stayed in if we booked on our own, and it was a better jumping off point for visiting the barrier reef and rain forest. Work with Michael and you'll end up with a more enjoyable trip to Australia and/or New Zealand!

I was really happy with the service Michael offered. He came up with some great places to stay and a good itinerary. It was really well presented digitally also. Nothing was too much trouble and Michael was super responsive if I needed to make changes, which ALWAYS happens on a longer trip. Everything he had planned went smoothly.... use him, it’s worth it!
